Mount Horeb High School has a variety of opportunities for involvement through various clubs and sports. However, due to the small town community being involved in these can be somewhat exclusive and they are not always welcoming to new students joining. The school itself has been recently remodeled and is very nice. Overall, the new edition creates a much better learning environment and includes new equipment such as a planetarium in one of the science teachers rooms. Additionally, the new Principal and Vice Principal are very understanding and have made the school a better place. They give their students a lot more freedom than past administration, and treat them like the young adults that they are. In terms of diversity, the school lacks this in some ways. Most of the students attending are strictly white middle class males or females. Again, this is mainly due to it being located in a small town, so there is simply not as much diversity as you would find at a larger city school.
Mount Horeb High School has an excellent music program, especially band, but three choir and orchestra are great too. The food and facilities are also above average. The teachers are amazing, but college readiness is lacking. Very few AP courses are offered, and college counseling centers around community and state schools. Students aren’t taught much about the college application process. The clubs are good, but priority is clearly and heavily given to sports related activities over academic and volunteer based clubs.
Absolutely wonderful Art and Music programs! All of the teachers and staff are generally very kind and many go above and beyond to make you feel safe and welcome. It is typically very liberal but seeing as it is a rural town there are a few students who are very outspoken in their hate but there are multiple clubs and committees in place to help create safe spaces and battle hate as well as stigmas! If you want to go to an ivy league college this really isn't the place for you though, with an 4.0 grading scale the best they can get you is a decent out of state. You would never be able to achieve your Cornell dreams. The diversity is almost nonexistent and it's very odd being one of the few kids who isn't predominantly scandinavian or german.
